When I connect (USB
cable) the Nokia 5 to my PC with the "Windows XP Service Pack 3"
operating system, it requires me to install the drivers it can not find.

Without
driver the internal memory is not accessible, but only the "CDROM"
partition is visible and clicking on the setup.exe file starts the USB
driver installation procedure, but immediately after it closes without
any driver installed.

Do you have solutions or other software to suggest to solve the problem?Thank you

XP has been obsolete and unsupported for many years now, so it's not particularly surprising that you are encountering driver issues. The default USB mode for the 5 should be MTP (Media Transfer Protocol), so that's what you need to be looking for. I believe it is installed as part of Windows Media Player on XP, if you can find an old release of that.

Thanks @Murph for your suggestion

xp is now obsolete and no longer supported, but so far with other
brands / models of smartphones there has never been any problem because
just connected automatically installed the software with necessary
drivers.
